About Specsavers
At Specsavers, we’re here to change lives through better sight and hearing, and behind every great customer experience is a strong financial foundation. That’s why we’re looking for an experienced Senior Reconciliation Analyst to join our team and play a critical role in safeguarding the integrity of our balance sheet. This is a fantastic opportunity for someone who thrives on solving complex financial challenges, enjoys digging into the detail, and takes pride in delivering accurate, high-quality reconciliations that inspire confidence at the highest levels of the business.
Role Overview
In this role, you’ll be much more than a reconciliations specialist. You’ll act as a trusted finance subject matter expert, providing assurance over complex, high-risk and high-value balance sheet accounts across full balance sheet, from fixed assets, accruals through to debtors, creditors, reserves and other key control accounts. We’re looking for someone with strong technical experience in balance sheet reconciliations, financial controls and balance sheet integrity, ideally gained within a large or complex organisation. You’ll need to be comfortable applying sound judgement to complex financial issues, identifying risks, analysing root causes and driving effective resolutions that strengthen financial governance and control.
